    Field Day

    “It’s time for Field Day again,” thought Carly as she started the last week of school.

    Carly was not looking forward to it. “Why does everybody make a big deal out of it?” Carly asked her mom. “Well, it’s supposed to be a fun day and a day to let yourself go,” said Carly’s mom. “I’m not good at any of those games that are played, and I’m afraid the kids are going to laugh at me. Maybe I can stay home and miss Field Day,” said Carly.

    Mary was Carly’s closest friend, and they walked to school every day. “Aren’t you excited about Field Day?” Mary asked Carly. “No, I don’t care about such a silly day. No one ever picks me for their team because I’m not good at those games,” answered Carly.

    Mary felt bad and she told her mom how unexcited Carly was and wondered what she could do to cheer her friend up. “See if you can get in a game that you know Carly is good at,” suggested Mary’s mom. Mary thought for a moment and said that she knew Carly loved to play horseshoes, and was really good at that game. She was also good at the water balloon toss (投掷) too.

    Field Day finally arrived. Mary came by Carly’s house for their daily walk to school. Carly was very quiet on the way to school. “I hear they are going to have horseshoes this year and also a water balloon game,” Mary said. “Really? I love horseshoes, and I am pretty good at catching those water balloons,” said Carly. Suddenly, Carly felt more excited about going to school and starting Field Day than she had ever been.

    The games began, and Carly had the best Field Day ever! Her team won first place in the water balloon toss thanks to her, and she got a ribbon (绶带) for second place in horseshoes. “What a great day!” Carly said to Mary. Carly is now looking forward to Field Day next year!

    24. Carly wasn’t looking forward to Field Day at first because ______.

    A. she didn’t have friends to go with her

    B. her friend Mary wasn’t excited about it

    C. her mom told her that it wasn’t fun at all

    D. she wasn’t good at those games that were played

    25. In the story, Mary ______.

    A. tried hard to cheer Carly up

    B. won first place this Field Day

    C. taught Carly how to play horseshoes

    D. stayed at home and missed this Field Day

    26. Carly will probably ______ next Field Day.

    A. invite her family to join her        B. make a completely new rule

    C. take an active part in the games     D. plan the whole event for her school

     

    C

    Imagine that your friend is cutting the cake to share with all the guests at the birthday party. The first three guests are handed large pieces of cake, while you are handed a teeny-tiny one. How would you feel? Is this fair? Most of us have a clear sense of what is fair and what is not, but where does this come from? Scientists try to study fairness in primate species (灵长类物种) to understand how fairness came about.

    Fairness often involves equal outcomes (平等的结果)

    Do monkeys behave in ways that lead to equal outcomes? To find out, scientists give monkeys choices about how to share food. Scientists ask a monkey to choose between two options—to provide a piece of food just for themselves, or to provide food for another monkey nearby, as well as for themselves (Figure 1). If monkeys are trying to achieve equal outcomes, they would give food to both themselves and another. Do they? Sometimes.

    The left monkey has just chosen the board to give food to himself and the neighboring monkey.

    The left monkey has just chosen the board that provides food for himself only.

    Figure 1

    Whether monkeys favor equal outcomes seems to depend on the species. The species which live in groups will prefer equal outcomes, but not all the time.

    What else might be influencing whether monkeys create equal outcomes? If the two monkeys are friends, one is more likely to share food with the other. It also seems that monkeys would make the equal choice when they cannot see the actual food—some scientists use pictures of food.

    But wait, does effort matter?

    Scientists have developed a way to test whether monkeys prefer everyone to be paid equally for doing the same work. In this study, monkeys are trained to work for food by exchanging small coins with a scientist. To determine if and how monkeys respond to unfairness, scientists have two monkeys take turns exchanging coins and give them different food—their favorite food or a less-preferred food (Figure2). If the monkey getting the less-preferred food refuses to keep exchanging coins, scientists conclude the monkeys respond to unfairness.

    The monkey on the left exchanges the coin for a piece of banana. Next, the neighbor monkey will also exchange a coin, but receive a less-preferred piece of food.

    Figure 2

    The results of the study have suggested differences across monkey species. Generally, monkeys living in groups do not respond to unfairness, while other monkeys do respond to it. However, monkeys do not appear to mind if they get a better food than others.

    All in all, monkeys’ sense of fairness does not seem to be as well-developed as our own. By studying their preferences for fairness and responses to unfair situations, we can learn more about how these values developed in humans. And this also helps us to better understand the natural world and how to care for animals as well.

    27. In the first monkey study, ______.

    A. scientists use more pictures of food than actual food

    B. scientists let monkeys choose from a variety of foods

    C. the left monkey will get no food if it provides food for another

    D. the left monkey can choose between two ways of providing food

    28. What can we learn from these monkey studies?

    A. Monkeys living in groups value effort more.

    B. Monkeys of different species enjoy different work.

    C. Not all monkeys stop working when treated unfairly.

    D. Monkeys seem to mind if the neighbor gets less food.

    29. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?

    A. Do Monkeys Care What Is Fair?

    B. Can Equal Outcomes Bring Fairness?

    C. Why Do Monkeys Value Fairness and Effort?

    D. How Do Monkeys Develop a Sense of Fairness?

     

    D

    We’ve all experienced failure. Whether we like it or not, failure is part of life. How people respond to it is of great importance both to their decisions and achievements.

    Some are likely to have such expectations: “If I should reach that goal, how happy would I feel?” In a recent study, we wanted to understand how such expectations may change in the face of failure. Are people able to predict their own happiness?

    The old saying “the grass is always greener on the other side” suggests that people spend much of their time longing for things they can’t have. In other words, the harder it is to achieve, the higher the valuation. But is this a good model for how ordinary people process failure? According to the story The Fox and the Grapes, failure often leads us to drop our initial (最初的) plan. In the story, the fox jumps with all his strength, yet he fails to reach the grapes. Finally, he walks away, concluding that the grapes were sour (酸的) anyway.

    So, which is it: greener grass or sour grapes? We did an experiment to determine how people react to failure.

    In the study, about 1,200 participants (参加者) received either good or poor feedback (反馈) on the practice trial of a test. Half of them were told that they had performed in the bottom 20 percent, while the other half, in the top 20 percent. They were then asked to predict how they would feel if they earned a high score on the actual test.

    The research results showed that those who received poor feedback on the practice trial predicted that they would feel less happiness and less pride, compared to those who received strong feedback. However, when they received a top score on the actual test later, they were just as happy as the other half, and much happier than they had predicted before. This suggests that the initial failure made people undervalue how good it would feel to succeed in the future.

    The question though, is why failure makes us downplay our future happiness.

    According to Professor Jon Elster, people don’t always know what they want, and often change their wishes to match what appears within reach. When the outcome doesn’t fit the one they have of themselves, they protect themselves by devaluing the goal—rather than devaluing self. In other words, when personal failure happens, one way of protecting our positive (积极的) sense of self is to refuse to accept the emotional importance of future achievements.

    Detachment (超脱) from personal goals can be useful, if it helps people redirect their attention from the impossible to better and more achievable goals. However, if the sour-grape effect kicks in too early and people become fearful of failure, they could miss out on the chance to try again and realize that what once seemed impossible is now within reach.

    30. What does the story The Fox and the Grapes suggest?

    A. The outcome valuation depends on what goal is set.

    B. Difficulties result in a higher achievement expectation.

    C. Past performance doesn’t help predict future happiness.

    D. Initial failure makes future success appear less attractive.

    31. The word “downplay” in Paragraph 6 probably means “______”.

    A. undervalue     B. better understand     C. destroy     D. discover

    32. What do we know from the passage?

    A. The participants cared more about strong feedback.

    B. The happier people are those who predict less happiness.

    C. The participants’ performance failed to match their abilities.

    D. People devalue the goal to keep a positive view of themselves.

    33. What is the writer trying to tell us?

    A. Failure is the mother of success.

    B. Detachment stops people from changing wishes.

    C. The seemingly impossible is worth trying sometimes.

    D. The sour-grape effect pushes us to keep moving forward.

    四、阅读短文,根据短文内容回答问题。(共10 分,每小题2 分)

    When it comes to celebrations, birthday parties can be one of the important of the whole year. The gifts, the singing, the candle-blowing... Basically, they’re all the best things thrown together into one day. But birthdays aren’t always a fun for everyone. For example, homeless children might not get anything at all for their special day. That’s why 17-year-old Daryn Dusansky decided to start The Balloon Project. It celebrates monthly birthdays for children living in homeless shelters (收容所) with the help of some volunteers. Dusansky’s dream: to bring smiles to all kids’ faces on their birthdays.

    As teenagers, they met many challenges at the beginning. One of the biggest was to make others believe that The Balloon Project was dependable and there would be a party each month. Each party is not easy as there are many things that have to be managed. Luckily, The Balloon Project volunteers want each party to be better than the last and can be counted on to make that happen.

    Getting The Balloon Project off the ground required many leadership qualities (品质) which Dusansky did not know she owned. Working hard, focusing on solutions, and connecting with people are all necessary qualities that have made The Balloon Project a success.

    Offering services to those in need and creating a positive influence are important in being an active member of a community. Community service teaches life lessons often not taught in school. At one party, a little boy and his father came up to thank her for holding the boy’s first organized birthday party. Dusansky then thanked them for teaching her something, too. The father, who lived in a shelter with his son, looked at her, puzzled, as if he was not worthy of teaching her anything. Dusansky explained to him that he had taught her to have the courage to ask for help when needed. She will never forget his hug.

    Find a cause that interests you. Dusansky loves birthday celebrations and wants disadvantaged children to have the opportunity to celebrate, too. Love is passed on easily—it encourages people to help and volunteer.

     

    34. How old was Dusansky when she decided to start The Balloon Project?

    35. Who does The Balloon Project help?

    36. What was one of the biggest challenges in running The Balloon Project?

    37. What did Dusansky learn from the father?

    38. What do you think of Dusansky?
